Maggie Boxey

Maggie Boxey is the daughter and granddaughter of Episcopal priests, a Navy veteran, and former sixth-grade math teacher, serving children at the middle school in her hometown of Fitzgerald, GA. Her passion for equity in her commuity has led her to serve on the Board of Directors for Sowega Rising and as an advocacy trainer for Fitzgerald for Change, both Black-led nonprofits for progress in South Georgia. She's been sober and in recovery for fifteen years. When she's not parenting, teaching, or being of service, you'll find her running in the country, cooking, painting watercolor, or vying for the cats' affection (they prefer her husband). She lives in Fitzgerald with three of her five children, her Marine husband, their three cats, and one dog.
